I believe all teachers and parents, and as a community we all must recite points number 8&9 on a daily basis. Somewhere down the line it shall become part of natural behaviour as the child grows.
Wow Gavin such an important message
This is so pertinent, especially in today’s hard-charging, highly-structured world. I see so many parents placing undue performance pressure on their children when in fact they should be nurturing the more primal of skills, such as acceptance, confidence, and empathy. It’s not grades that gets one up the ladder of life, it’s mindset – one of the greatest contributions one can make towards the success and happiness of children.
